What's new in Patchwork 3.18.1
Apr 6, 2021
- Added:
- Builds for arm64 & armv7l Linux
- Spellchecking: add ability to select multiple languages or to disable it completely.
- Rudimentary Status page shows index progress per view
- Context menus are much richer now, allowing to copy media & open things in Browser both locally and on a public viewer.
- Deprecated:
- Use of depject had been deprecated for a long while.
- As a proof of concept, some modules in this release were now migrated from depject to regular imports.
- Security:
- A metric ton of version bumps, most notably including electron (now v11.3.0) and chloride.
- The result is a much snappier experience and virtually no "falling back to JS crypto" slowness.
- Added:
- Farsi translation by @dev0p0 (#1313)
- Changed:
- While publishing a message, the content warning will be trim()'ed of leading and trailing whitespace. If the result is empty, no content warning will be published.

- Drop-down for blocking feeds was not showing (#1328, fixed in #1368)
- Correct Brazilian Portuguese translation (#1327, thanks to @fabiocosta0305)
- Correction to French translation (#1298, thanks to @BorisPAING)
- One for the language enthusiasts: "who" -> "whom" (#1307, thank you @RichardLitt!)
- Security:
- Many version bumps, including some security updates in direct and transitive dependencies.
New in Patchwork 3.18.0 (Jun 3, 2020)
- Added:
- Support for DHT invites as generated by manyverse (#1246) added by @staltz. This is the headline feature of this release. DHT invites are one of the more promising ways to improve the onboarding experience without a pub. We invite everyone to test this feature out. Invite a friend or family member to SSB, tell us how it worked, we're eager to iterate on this!
- Show last user activity on profile pages and mouse-over popups (#1289, #1290)
- Add Dracula-inspired theme (#1294, #1295)
- You can now type /profile into the search bar to visit your own profile. (#1287) Handy in combination with using Ctrl+L (Cmd+L on MacOS) to activate the search bar.
- When using Ctrl/Cmd+Return to publish a message, a second push of Ctrl/Cmd+Return will now confirm the publication, while Esc or simply Return (without the Ctrl/Cmd modifier) will cancel the publish and return back to editing the message (#1286)
- Fixed:
- Non-square profile pictures are no longer stretched/compressed in the private messages tab (#1276)
- Update locales, especially French (#1275, #1278, #1280, #1281)
